Description
Cartref Restaurant, located at No 22 and No 23, consists of two buildings. No 22, dating from the 18th century with a date of 1778 marked on the corner stone, is constructed from colourwashed rubble stone and features a grouted slate roof with large stone end stacks. It is one and a half storeys tall and has a three-window range with a central door that is set beneath a timber lintel. Each side of the door is flanked by a 12-pane sash window, which has a rough slate lintel and slate sill. The attic includes late 19th century or early 20th century eaves-breaking 12-pane sashes located in timber gabled dormers. The rear outshut was built up in the 20th century. Old photographs indicate that there were no dormers originally, but rather three narrow lights under the eaves.
No 23, built in the later 19th century, is finished with colourwashed render and features raised cement dressings. This building underwent an early 20th century alteration, as old photographs reveal that it originally had a rubble stone front with cambered brick window heads. It has a grouted slate roof with a stone stack on the left and a rendered stack on the right. No 23 is two storeys high and has a three-window range of 12-pane sashes set in raised surrounds, with a similar surround for the central door.
